Hypoplastic Bone Marrow

Hi Shellybean,

I saw Judith Marsh at Kings College Hospital for hypoplastic bone marrow 3 years ago. I'm sure you'll have Googled her & seen that she's one of the best!

I still attend Kings every 6 months for blood tests & monitoring. I've been neutropenic for around 16 years now but my hypoplastic marrow was only discovered in 2013.

They're not sure if it's a possible evolving AA or MDS. I believe my blood is tested for cytogenetic abnormalities etc. as this would confirm a diagnosis either way. In the meantime I remain pretty healthy with a cellularity of somewhere between 10-15%

Do keep us posted
